Olé!

In honour of Cinco de Mayo, I’d like to personally thank Cleveland Indians shortstop Luis Valbuena for turning what should have been a game-ending ground out, and helping spark the Blue Jays 4-3 comeback win. Olé to you, sénor!

It could very well have been a tribute to Roger Dorn from Major League, but the Blue Jays will take whatever lucky bounces they can get because it seems like the past few seasons, the Baseball Gods haven’t been kind to the Jays in close games.

Ian has been writing about the Toronto Blue Jays since 2007. He enjoyed the tail-end of the Roy Halladay era and vividly remembers the Alex Rodriguez "mine" incident. He'll also retell the story of Game 5 of the ALDS to his son for the next 20 years.

The Jays are basically the team from Major League this year. Fred Lewis as Willie Mays Hays, John Buck as Jake Taylor, Vernon Wells as Pedro Cerrano, Kevin Gregg (or maybe Brett Cecil now) as Rick Vaughn…you get the idea.
